It all demonstrates how clueless poker management, and ElDo/SL higher ups are about poker in general. With the only operational place in all of downtown offering poker, they move it from a very good location at Eldorado (great walkby exposure) to the back of the neighboring casino, where no one notices it. And SilLeg has attempted poker before,with elec.table, with no success.
The ElDo people used to start a game at a moments notice, get players in a game instead of waiting around. Now, at SL, waitlists grow to over 10, as high as 18, with no game start up. Perhaps they've cut back on dealers they have in place. Clearly, they are getting outdrawn and out-promo'ed by Peppermill. But, its been done before, go from a smaller, intimate room to a larger, brighter place, and the business drops off.
So it wasn't the room, but the ops and intagibles. And I stay at Peppermill now
